Rear shocks
I have a 2000 ssei the rear shocks are pumped up tight. Can someone tell me how to check the exhaust on the compressor. I can hear compressor working, The level switch looks ok but don't know how to check that either.

Re: Rear shocks
Does the compressor continue to run even though the shocks are pumped up and the back end is "jacked up"? You can also disconnect the linkage on the level sensor and reposition it to see if it vents.

Re: Rear shocks
Thank you for your help. The compressor does not continue too run. When I turn the key on the compressor runs for couple seconds and shuts off. I unhooked the linkage from the level sensor with car running and pushed the sensor arm all way up and compressor starts running push it down and it stops but I did not hear it vent. So does that mean the exhaust is not working?? If so how do I fix that? Any advice is appreciated.
